This is the translator that provides two-way verbal communication between people that don’t share a common language. Each side of the device has an integrated microphone that captures dialogue, automatically translates the message, and “speaks” it to the other person. Unlike text translators that require one to stop and enter each sentence word for word, one simply talks into this device as if engaging in real conversation. It verbally translates 12 languages without requiring Internet access including Chinese, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Russian, and Spanish. When connected to the Internet, it verbally translates 21 additional languages including Greek, Hindi, Hungarian, and Polish, and provides text translations for an additional 19 languages.

Abstract:
Machine translation has made rapid advances in recent years. Millions of people are using it today in online translation systems and mobile applications in order to communicate across language barriers. The question naturally arises whether such systems can approach or achieve parity with human translations. In this talk, we first describe our recent advances in Nerul Machine translation that led to SOTA results on news translation. We then address the problem of how to define and accurately measure human parity in translation. We will discuss our system achieving human performance and discuss limitations as well as future directions of current NMT systems.
